I’ll be attending INTEROP in Las Vegas from Apr 27th – Apr 29th, If anyone wants to get together for a drink or wants free Fedora discs drop me a line and I’ll make sure I have some in tow.
Oh and I’ve actually created a new header for this site 🙂

My OS Drive finally bit the dust in my desktop, good ol’ 160GB ATA133 lasted 5 years (pretty impressive) of near constant usage. I’m normally not a Maxtor (now Seagate) fan however 5 years is pretty good. I’ve replaced it with a 500GB Seagate Barracuda SATAII drive. Did a rsync of /home and I’m back online within a hour of a catastrophic drive failure with no data lost and no settings lost. Ahhh behold the power of linux 🙂
However something did go seriously wrong in the midst of the old drive removal;
Normally I hate living in Tucson due to well.. people. But on days like today (61F Very sunny and a slight breeze) there is nothing better than just relaxing out side, or taking a motorcycle ride and just enjoying the sun. I suggested that we move the NOC outside during the spring time to enjoy the outdoors… sadly I got a laugh for the suggestion.

I am anxiously awaiting Millencolin’s new album.. shit if their new record is as good as their previous we’ll be 3 for 3 for new CDs that kick ass by some of my favorite bands (Already released Streetlight Manifesto & upcoming Flogging Molly).
Come on MC don’t let me down 🙂

So we’re slowly getting shared colocation cabinets off independent UPSs and onto the big MGE and doing so is requiring a lot of sorting and cleaning of the cabinets, we’re removing all power cords and replacing them with custom length cables to reduce clutter along with custom length ethernet cables and such. I was in the facility from 12:30am -> 4am doing nothing but that with the whole cabinet powered down, talk about a lot of fun… sheesh.
